Basic training course

Our Basic Training Course is designed to improve the behaviour of puppies and young dogs as well as rescue dogs - all breeds are welcome. The course is indoors and run over 6 weeks, covering a number of areas that enable the dog to be integrated into family life and to be well-behaved and responsive to its owner commands.

The course focuses on a 'kind-reward' method of training meaning that the dog to rewarded as its behaviour and learning increases.

As well as learning to respond to key owner commands such as sit, stay and down, the course also enables owners to learn more about techniques that will improve the relationship with the dog. There is also a weekly question and answer session where owners can ask any question to to with their dog and address any key issues or problems.

Prior to the the course, both dog and owner will attend an induction session so we can meet you and your dog and discuss exactly what you want to achieve from the course.
